under any circumstance he cannot claim higher rate of deprecition

Depreciation can be claimed only as per rates prescribed under Section 32 of IT act.Depreciation at a rate which is higher than that prescribed under sec 32 is not allowed

Dear Madhu balan, I feel your query is based on the provisions of Section 32(iia) of the Income Tax Act which allows for higher depreciation allowance under certain circumstances for machinery or plant acquired or installed after 01.04.2005 in the business of manufacture of a article or thing. Am i correct? The conditions stipulated are; the said asset not having been previously used within India or outside by another person. The higher depreciation is equivalent to 20% of the actual cost of machinery or plant. Do you find any particular problem in making the claim before the IT dept? Please discuss!

told by everyone that dep claimed higher than Sec 32 is not allowed except additional depriciatoin case for the Mfg. Org. only

I am willing to know about deprecation

Excess depretion is dissallowed under the Income Tax Act.However by fulfilling the condition of section 32(iia) u can claim addtional dep on plant & machinery.

Dear Ashish, Scope of Section 32(iia) of the income Tax Act, not only covers motor cars but covers a wider term plant and machinery as pointed out by Mr.Amarjeet Singh. It is intended for speedy replacement of machinery by the industrial concerns which would very useful in inducting the latest technology in the manufacturing process. It is for the prudent manufacturer assessee to take note of this concession and adequately be benifitted out of this. With regards!
